Feedback???
I recently installed new plugs in the car, AC Delco Iridium along with Callaway wires. I used all the lubricants like I was supposed to. 
However, the car now has a clicking sound in the radio that was not there before.
Yes, it gets faster with more throttle that is applied. The sound disappears when the CD player is used, only clicks when the radio is on. Anyone else have this problem with Callaway wires? Or did I do something wrong in the install?

Did you listen/feel for the double-click as the wire was pushed into the coil pack, and the single-click as it was pushed on the plug?
If not the double-click, the problem could be at the coil.

Hmm....I'm TOTALLY guessing here...but usually a 'clicking' sound with the radio only is usually a sign of a bad ground. Did you losen the ground strap or other grounds while you were installing the plugs? If so, check that

Thanks for the help...I will check all those things listed above. I know about the click onto the coil pack and during the install I was very attentive about that click sound . As for the ground strap...I'm not really sure where that is so I don't think I would have loosen that one, however, I have done dumber things in my career as a backyard mechanic
Any help on where that strap is located?
